A passenger train from Duluth. Northern
division Omaha railroad, was ditched at
Cumberland at 2 O'Clock last Monday,
the 25th inst, by an open switch, burying

eral employees were injured, including

tracked and neglected to close the
switch. The wreck, consisting OF the en-
CINE, express and baggage cars, was re-

LAST Monday, S. Burkhart, dep
uty Clerk of the 4th judicial court
district, W. f. Gortner, Stenogra-
pher, and Reddy" Minner, of
Las Vegas, paid their first visit to
White Oaks. We assisted in do
ing the honors to them, but before
starting out sought to impress
them by rociting in our most
impressive manner
" Whisky r. Whisky bane of life,
Spring Of envy source of strife,
Could | but half thy curses tell,
The wise would wish thee safe in hell. 4"
Seeing that it had the desired ef-
feet, we neandered forth with them
and pointed out to their vision the
places reputed to deal in intoxi-
cantss, so that they could avoid
them. Before leaving on Tuesday
morning, they called to return
thanks for our considerate atten-
ton, and in parting said they
nevr struck a town where the Ii
quor averaged so good as in White
Oaks. We hope to see the jolly
trio here again at the next
term Of court. They made many
| friends while here.

RAIL ROADS, &c.

When Messrs. Llewellyn and
Deveraux, OF the Santa Fe r. r.
Co. were here the other day, we
quietly CLEANED the following
INSIDE facts from them
They SAID that no doubt entered
their minds but what active work
would be prosecuted on the Klowa
extension line the present fall.
This highway will be run from a
point west of the Pecos, thence
southwesterly, taking in, among
other points, White Oaks, Tularo-
so, White Sands, and San Angus
tine, striking the main line OF the
A. T. & S. F., at Las Cruces.
Another road will quickly fol
low from Ballanger, Texas, Ecross-
ing the T. & p. at Colorado City,
Texas, and running through Lin
coin County in diagonal direc-
ton to Albuquerque, making the
shortest and most direct route from
the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific
coast.
They say that an evidence of
contemplated business on the part
Of the A. Il. & S. f X. II. Co., Is
to be found in the fact that hun
dreds of acres are occupied by
millions of ties, Which our inform
ants are satisfied will not long en-
cumber the ground they now oc-
cupy.
Mr.. Llewellyn informed us that
the rate from Engle to- Kansas
City tor cattle has been reduced to
S1O0 per car, a reduction of S1l-
80 per car over thepast years rate,
and so per car over the rate which
has been in operation since the
passage OF the Interstate com
merce law.
MAJ. l.. expressed surprise and
pleasure at the strides which
White Oaks had made since he
was last here, and he sand that the
dullest mind and most phlegmatic
blooded could see and feel that
the prosperity now dawniug would
break with electric force III the
near future, revealing fortunes tc
the patient workers who have sc
long stood by the fortunes OF oul
town through sunshine and storm.
Had it not been Sunday, he would
nave taken title deeds to some OF
our town property, but he will not
be content until he possesses him
self of some Of it.

converted that he bought tor a song,
Sue. Younker's mules, harness and

offered to others, but refused be-
cause it was known then, as well
as now, that the party offering it

he had he could have secured sew

Sigh knew then as we'll as he

Conviction should follow conver-
